Geographic information system (GIS) geography reference it talks the software system which is possible. When like this geographic information system in key feature trying to observe the problem which is an expression of geography information in the center, the research and development with 3 dimension expressions is active from 2 dimension expressions of existing and it is advanced. double meaning geography information which is huge to be quick, the place where it controls efficiently there is a many problem, the ring from the dissertation which it sees and 3 dimensions and efficient scene of the GIS rendering compared to the ring from hazard image base modeling and rendering compared to hazard proposal LDI (Layered Depth Images) it uses GIS rendering compared to the ring to sleep it does. It acquired the terrain data of 3 dimensions from thread side base method. terrain data of 3 dimensions which are acquired like this the place where it has depth information like this depth information in base and the LDI, it did it created. Also it was a traditional modeling method and 3DS-Max it used and it created the LDI. It used LDI information which is acquired like this and the GIS of more efficient 3 dimensions rendering compared to the possibility of ring it was.

In this paper, we propose a method for filling out the occlusions in generating multi-view images from one source image and its ground-truth depth image. The method is based on image inpainting and layered interpolation. The source image is first divided into several layers using depth information. The occlusions are interpolated separately in every layered image using the image inpainting algorithm. Finally, the interpolated layered images are combined to obtain different viewpoint images. Interpolating occlusions with depth-correlated texture information that is contained to each layer makes it possible to obtain more detailed and accurate results than previous methods. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through experimental results.

This paper presents a scalable coding method for depth images by considering the quality of synthesized images in virtual views. First, we design a new edge detection algorithm that is based on calculating the depth difference between two neighboring pixels within the depth map. By choosing different thresholds, this algorithm generates a scalable bit stream that puts larger depth differences in front, followed by smaller depth differences. A scalable scheme is also designed for coding depth pixels through a layered sampling structure. At the receiver side, the full-resolution depth image is reconstructed from the received bits by solving a partial-differential-equation (PDE). Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the rate-distortion performance of synthesized images at virtual views and achieves better visual quality.

This paper proposes a method to generate multiview images which use a synthesized image consisting of layered objects. The camera system which consists of a depth camera and a RGB camera is used in capturing objects and extracts 3-dimensional information. Considering the position and distance of the synthesizing image, the objects are synthesized into a layered image. The synthesized image is spaned to multiview images by using multiview generation tools. In this paper, we synthesized two images which consist of objects and human and the multiview images which have 37 view points were generated by using the synthesized images.

The multi-view video is a collection of multiple videos capturing the same scene at different viewpoints. The multi-view video can be used in various applications, including free viewpoint TV and three-dimensional TV. Since the data size of the multi-view video linearly increases as the number of cameras, it is necessary to compress multi-view video data for efficient storage and transmission. The multi-view video can be coded using the concept of the layered depth image (LDI). In this paper, we describe a procedure to generate LDI from the natural multi-view video and present a method to encode multi-view video using the concept of LDI.

In this paper, a new illumination compensation algorithm by segmentation with depth information is proposed to improve the coding efficiency of multi-view images. In the proposed algorithm, a reference image is first segmented into several layers where each layer is composed of objects with a similar depth value. Then we separate objects from each other even in the same layer by labeling each separate region in the layered image. Then, the labeled reference depth image is converted to the position of the distortion image view by using 3D warping algorithm. Finally, we apply an illumination compensation algorithm to each of matched regions in the converted reference view and distorted view. The occlusion regions that occur by 3D warping are also compensated by a global compensation method. Through experimental results, we are able to confirm that the proposed algorithm has better performance to improve coding efficiency.

This paper proposes a novel method that reconstructs a surfel-based object by using visual hull from multiple images. The surfel is a point primitive that effectively approximates point-set surface. We create the surfel representation of an object from images by combining the LDC(Layered Depth Cube) surfel sampling with the concept of visual hull that represents the approximated shape from input images. Because the surfel representation requires relatively smaller memory resources than the polygonal one and its LDC resolution is freely changed, we can control the reconstruction quality of the target object and acquire the maximal quality on the given memory resource.

In this paper, we propose a new pre-processing algorithm applied to depth map to improve the coding efficiency. Now, 3DV/FTV group in the MPEG is working for standard of 3DVC(3D video coding), but compression method for depth map images are not confirmed yet. In the proposed algorithm, after dividing the histogram distribution of a given depth map by EM clustering method based on GMM, we classify the depth map into several layered images. Then, we apply different mean shift filter to each classified image according to the existence of background or foreground in it. In other words, we try to maximize the coding efficiency while keeping the boundary of each object and taking average operation toward inner field of the boundary. The experiments are performed with many test images and the results show that the proposed algorithm achieves bits reduction of 19% ~ 20% and computation time is also reduced.

In this paper, we propose an object recognition system that can effectively find out its category, its instance name, and several attributes from the color and depth images of an object with hierarchical feature learning. In the preprocessing stage, our system transforms the depth images of the object into the surface normal vectors, which can represent the shape information of the object more precisely. In the feature learning stage, it extracts a set of patch features and image features from a pair of the color image and the surface normal vector through two-layered learning. And then the system trains a set of independent classification models with a set of labeled feature vectors and the SVM learning algorithm. Through experiments with UW RGB-D Object Dataset, we verify the performance of the proposed object recognition system.

Recently, the grounded electrical-source airborne transient electromagnetic (GREATEM) system with high power source was introduced to achieve deeper investigation depth and to overcome high noise level. Although the GREATEM is a transient electromagnetic system using a long grounded wire as the transmitter, GREATEM data have been interpreted with 1D earth models because 2D or 3D modeling and inversion of vast airborne data are complicated and expensive to calculate. Generally, 1D inversion is subsequently applied to every survey point and combining 1D images together forms the stitched conductivity-depth image. However, the stitched models often result in abrupt variations in neighboring models. To overcome this problem, laterally constrained inversion (LCI) has been developed in inversion of ATEM data, which can yield layered sections with lateral smooth transitions. In this study, we analysed the GREATEM data through 1D numerical modeling for a curved grounded wire source. Furthermore, we developed a laterally constrained inversion scheme for continuous GREATEM data based on a layered earth model. All 1D data sets and models are inverted as one system, producing layered sections with lateral smooth transitions. Applying the developed LCI technique to the GREATEM data, it was confirmed that the laterally constrained inversion can provide laterally smooth model sections that reflect the layering of the survey area effectively.
